193 cm, not very agile, poor leap.It does leave me with question marks. The really good talls get drafted early. The highlights make it look like he should have gone top ten. I have a diet heavy in salt.
That's taller than the listed heights of both Darling and Mihocek though and he has worked hard on his athletic traits during the shutdown.193 cm, not very agile, poor leap.
Darling is a lot more nimble that him, and that is why he was drafted as a rookie.That's taller than the listed heights of both Darling and Mihocek though and he has worked hard on his athletic traits during the shutdown.

I'm sure his neck-whip muscles are nowhere near as agile as Darlings' and probably couldn't contort forward or buckle at the knees as well either, bit more fierce at the contest though. Also probably rated higher than Mihocek at the same age, given Mihocek was a mature ager.Darling is a lot more nimble that him, and that is why he was drafted as a rookie.
Mihocheck has brilliant leading patterns and accurate goal kicking. I doubt he will be able to get enough 1 on 1's to justify his spot in AFL, especially body to body so he will need a few more tricks. (From watching his highlights that appears to be his big strength)
I am not saying he won't make it, I was just explaining why he slipped.
Yeah, I noted that too, and we really do need one of our tall defenders to focus forward. Surprised the ‘journalist’ didn’t follow it up. But I wondered if a non-obvious reason could be if they get one of the senior defenders to mentor the rookie forwards a bit in terms of what they can expect.Interesting that on the video he said he will probably be working close with Tabs and Hamling??
I thought that too. Jlo being big on defence, you perhaps need a defender to teach them. Just thought is was an interesting comment on the insight on mentoring these guys.Yeah, I noted that too, and we really do need one of our tall defenders to focus forward.

What you have said, and in spades.I am just choosing to take the positives out of Josh's drafting He was chosen as co-captain this year, clearly shows good leadership traits is what I take from that. Just looking at photo's and reading articles he appears to have worked his arse off over the Covid period, appears to have dropped weight and looks quite the specimen for an 18 year old. Another couple of preseasons and we have our answer to Jonathon Brown He appears to have the work ethic that Hugh Dixonlacked. It would be comforting if his highlights showed more of his goalkicking, but I will settle for him dominating the WAFL next year instead. I have a good feeling about him, he may take time but given his mature body and the fact that we are playing Tabs and Lobb he may get a game as a third tall forward earlier than we think. Having a lesser defender on him to start with may allow the confidence to build before he is the centrepiece. I have a great feeling about young JoshPLAYERCARDSTART41Hugh Dixon

Was that directed at anyone / anything in particular or do you just have Tourette's?Crikey moses. let's delist the kid already.
FFS, we have not seen him yet.WTF bag the sheet outta him.
GHAFG.
Only the idiots here that all they seem to want to do is bag a redruit.Was that directed at anyone / anything in particular or do you just have Tourette's?
Probably best if you quote them, I was confused as I can't recall seeing anyone bag him out. After reading this thread I thought he was the next messiah!Only the idiots here that all they seem to want to do is bag a redruit.
I would also Consider Clancee PearceBarlow was a legendary rookie get, maybe just fits that timeframe. Lee Spurralso very handy.PLAYERCARDSTARTLee Spurr

But of late a lot of the rookie spots have been used for list management purposes, with players coming in off the main list either injury prone types with talent or those who haven't cemented but they wanted more of a look at.

did I just read right...Sully. Ah yes speaking from experience....10 weeks wasn't it?
pft play on
Reminds me of the "Thugmantle" Era of 2005-8. Soloman, Josh CarrIt's difficult watching that hit on Ling again. One of the few times It's been embarrassing being a supporter of the club.
Reading Pav's book - it seems like Harvey found it difficult disciplining his mates - Tarrant, Solly etc. We were a bit of a boys club. Even letting Belly live in Gero before the 08 season was a slipping of standards.

2020 has been a strange year and deserves an unexpected finish. Josh Treacy is the second coming of Lord Matthew PavlichI think it says a fair bit about team situation that the most popular draftee thread is the Victorian rookie kid rather than the local 1st or 2nd round picks. I'm not sure whether I should be amused or uncomfortable, probably both.

Love it moist2020 has been a strange year and deserves an unexpected finish. Josh Treacy is the second coming of Lord Matthew Pavlich. In a year where both of Fremantles "Great White Hopes" were sent packing, it would only be fitting that the one Key Forward selectes would turn into "The One". He's here Ladies and Gentlemen.

Hamling could be helping him figure out how to get away from defenders. Johnno used to work with Tabs quite a bit.Interesting that on the video he said he will probably be working close with Tabs and Hamling??
